Our guide was great. We enjoyed the hike to see Lake Guatavita even though it rained. Visiting the quaint town of Guatavita was nice, we had a good lunch there.

Firstly, I thank our guide Yelitza, since without her motivation I would not have been able to finish climbing the mountain 😂 it was my first hiking tour. Both places, the stories, the legends are fascinating! We chose the included lunch option; delicious. We loved everything!!!

The tour to the lake was very enjoyable. Seeing the countryside outside the city. Learning the history of Guatavita. My guide Nataly was excellent and the docent at the lake was very knowledgeable. Excellent experience.

Because we liked the Bogata city tour we had with Daniel so much, we were happy that he was available to do this tour. Daniel met us at our hotel, and the driver, Fernando, picked us up, and took the scenic route to Guatavita. The lake is on land belonging to the indigenous Muisca, and our tour was conducted by a Muisca guide, with Daniel translating. Unfortunately (if you’re a retired teacher like I am) there were two school buses of students also on the tour. The guide’s focus was mainly on the students, but the hike, flora, and views made up for it. We did learn through the guide and Daniel about the origin of El Dorado, the many countries trying to gain riches by enslavement, exploitation and disregard for land and it people.
After, Daniel took us to an excellent restaurant in town for lunch. The region is known for trout, and that’s what we had. The meal was delicious, and it was a day we’ll spent.
